Have you ever been called "soft" on the Bush Administration?
I have. For daring to call Fidel Castro a dictator and another time because I dared to say that Al Qaeda was a real and dangerous organization.

Sometimes I become frustrated that it seems like a contest as to who hates Bush and his policies the most. Some people use the "soft on Bush" technique of argument to silence any criticism.

1. Sort of like the "soft on terror" argument.
It's a game like anything else. Sigh. Time to admit we both do it.

3. I got called a Freeper for claiming Oswald shot Kennedy
It just means you think for yourself, instead of accepting a party line on everything. It's what separates Dems from Republicans.

4. shoot
Castro is a punk! I am all for Democracy and Castro is a dictator, and having family in Cuba I know he first hand he is a punk who treats some of his people like dirt.

I am against Totalitarian regimes as much as the next guy.

6. Ideological purity
A very comforting position to know that anybody who disagrees with your position is just wrong.
